Your objective

The controls to know
Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Read a button’s label before selecting it. A new-round button replaces the current round.

In LETTER, choosing T reveals both T positions. It uses no incorrect guesses. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Keep this in mind
Selecting the same letter twice has no effect. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
